I worked at a nuke plant for 24 years.In modern reactors, all a meltdown is going to do is prevent the operator from using that reactor ever again.
That means the power generation is out, the company that owns it takes a big loss in revenue plus clean up costs.
It takes years to build a plant. The loss in power for japan is pretty severe. They can't make it up by buying more oil. They can't even import power from overseas.
The country will need to build some new plants quickly because I'm willing to bet they don't have that kind of spare capacity.
